THE HOUSE OFFICES.



The members OF the House are gathering in for
the caucuses. The democrats OF the most OF the
State delegations met at various places this morn
ing to decide upon their course in the doorkeeper
ship Tight The republicans 60 into caucus at 3
O'Clock, but there is no necessity for full atten-
dance. Mr. Cannon is expected to act as chair
man. Mr. Reed will be given the complimentary
nomination as Speaker, and the old candidates for
the onices will be likewise compImented.
The democrats meet at O'Clock p m, and it is
expected that they win have a lively caucus. Mr..
Cox, OF New York. will act as chairman. Mr.. Car
Isle viii be nominated for Speaker, Mr. Leedom as
sergeant.at-arms, Mr.. Dalton as postmaster, and
position. Then win come up the matter
Of the doorkeepership. The candidates

former, with the chances in favor Of Mr. Donelson,

Arkansas, is expected then to make his charges in
speech 70 the caucus, and to make as determined
and earnest tight as he can. This Is expected to
provoke responses and to involve the members in

ton making charges and calling for an investiga-

members win bolt to prevent Mr. bonelson's cleo
ton should he get the nomination. The plan is to
PiOS0u1 uiS ocCtiOn IN any way pOSSlDe. but ii he
gets the caucus nomination 1t seems absurd to
think that his election could be beaten. His
friends seem more confident than ever this morn
Ing OF his election and the indications seem decd-
edly favorable TO him.
The announcement of the candidacy Of Mr.
Raines Introduces new complications. II is possi-
ble that MI. Ra1nes may get enough votes to pre-
vent an election on the first ballot Should any
thing like deadlock occur, Gen Fields, the eX-
doOrkeeper, would come in as q dark horse and
would probably get the election. All the old men,
bers who knew him as dOorkeeper before are very
friendly to him. He has telegraphed many OF his
old friends that should anything happen in
caucus to make such a thing desirable, they may
use his name. Upon this contingency only Will
his name go In. The fight on the start viii be be-
tween Donelson and Hurt, and will be settled as
between them on the frst ballot. 1t has been
decided to take the vote alphabetically, and It
Is thought that, as the Speakers name comes

might be In doubt would conclude that II he
was satisfied they could AFFORD to be. should he go
against Mr.. DonelsOn 1t would have an adverse In
nuence. As to Mr. Raines, 1t Is thought that he
might easily have got the doorkeepership by aim
ing for 1t some months ago, but that now he has
no hope.

THE CUTTING CASE.
Nothing to Warrant the Excitement In
Mexico.
THE CLAIM PRESENTED TO THAT COUNTRY MERELY TO
SETTLE PRINCIPLE-THE HISTORY OF THE AFFAIR

THE CLAIM PRESENTED TO THAT COUNTRY MERELY TO
SETTLE PRIECIPLE-THE HISTORY OF THE AFFAIR.
The officials OF the Department OF State are at
loss to account for the feeling that appears to
have arisen in Mexico a result Of the discussion
OF the Cutting case. 1t Is said that the subject
has been presented to the Mexican government In
accordance with the forms of International law
with view to the settlement OF q principle and
not with any intention Of endeavoring TO enforce
vexat1ous claim in an arbitrary manner. As
matter OF fact, there has been no new preSenta-
tlon OF Cuttings claim against the Mexican gov
ernment The history or the case is as follows:
just before Cuttings release the Mexican gov
government had transmitted to Washington
long statement OF its position In the matter up
holding the justice OF article forty Eight Of the
Mexican code, which had been questioned by this
Government as an assumption OF extra terri
torfal jurisdiction that could not be ad-
mitted by the United States. When cutting
was released the correspondence was allowed to
lapse for time and no answer was made to the
Mexican contention at that time, the object being
countries TO become less tense and bad feeling to
subside. Recently, however, the Department Of
State, deemfng 1t prudent to come to an UNDER
cause international trouble resumed the discussion
making an answer to the Mexican contention and
pointing out the desirability Of a modification Of
the Objectionable Mexican statute. In these doc
uments attention Is called to a similar action Of
this Government In the McCloud case, which arose
in 1872 as JUSTIFICATION for the request In that
erpment, having refused to surrender McCloud
upon the demand OF the British govern
ment, the latter suggested that our statutes
be amended in a spirit OF international comfy to
meet the requirements OF justice. Although the
demand OF Great Britain was refused at the time,
Congress subsequently amended the statutes so as
extend the jurisdiction OF u. s. courts over such
cases In the manner indicated by Great Britain.
All OF these facts have been presented to the
Mexican government In support Of the position
assumed by the Department OF state, bu: no
nxed money indemnity has been demanded In
Cutting s case, and nothing has been said that
would, In the Judgment OF the Department, war
rant the excitement Of any tll-feelng between the
two countries
